A lot of people do, like myself. But sometimes it behaves badly and the shift light is gone for whatever reason. Next time you turn the engine on, everything is fine. It is something related to resetting the wheel. Mine sometimes work just fine for a long time.

Thanks for the quick reply. I see you have a 2012, has the dealer given you any problem regarding warranty etc given its not an official approved part?

Not at all. As a matter of fact, dealer updated the software/firmware on all the onboard computers and ECU trying to make it to work well. They can't deny warranty for a part like that (as far as I know).

I realize this is a older thread but was hoping that someone might be able to help and that way I order the correct thing. I have a '11 335is w/DCT and only see one wheel listed on BMW's site but while recently looking on eBay saw a BMW dealer selling two different wheels. In the line description up top one says with DCT paddles and the other link says WITHOUT paddles.

There is a different part number for both and a price difference as well of about 130 bucks. Also, when I was on the official BMW site there was no part number to help cross reference plus there were options for a transmitter and receiver but there was no information as to what they did or if I needed them to install. I'm really only after the shift light option and being able to monitor some of the engine parameters, ie. oil, coolant temp, ect... Can anyone help? If so I would be greatly appreciative!
